There are two files attached of a frame I'm designing for a drafting table. In "Draft 1", there are two components that have curved faces on them but where that curved face is actually missing.

The first piece is a strut that is on an angle and supports a vertical piece. I wanted to draw it so that it intersects with the face of the upright at one end and with the leg at the bottom. These would eventually be tenoned into mortises in the two adjoining pieces (but I have not drawn in the tenons yet). I got this piece rotated into position where I wanted it but in drawing it I lost the face on the curved (front) surface. (I can't actually recall how I got it into place to align with the adjoining faces, but I know I did not use the Follow Me tool.) But I know that I did use the Scale and Move tools to get the ends where I wanted them. There is a similar problem at the bottom of the two legs.where the face is missing.

Now, after looking at one of your posts I understood better how the Follow Me tool worked. So in "Draft 2" I built the piece again and used the Follow Me tool which left me with a curved face in tact. But now I cannot rotate the strut so that the ends align with the adjoining faces. Ive tried the Move and Scale tools but I end up with a distorted piece if I get the ends the way I want them.

I believe I am at the stage where I've learned just enough of SketchUp to get me well into trouble--but not nearly enough to get out!
